I can send you a picture of what those look like if it helps.

those are cool - I wish more repro makers would put "reproduction" on their cart / box / label.

I think most repro makers assume that collectors are smart enough to know that there is no such thing as a "Secret of Man 2" or a NTSC-U/C Bahamut Lagoon. But yeah, a clear indication would be nice.

I do like how RetroZone uses whacky plastic colors for their carts. No mistaking them for the real thing.

My typical aversion to it is that I like the authentic look, but the "Reproduction" on these labels blends so well that doesn't seem to be a problem. I may have to get one or two of these.

yeah, they are great. the "game cases" are just rips from the cover project in UGC's and i've heard awful things about their quality, but the labels are nice. not terribly expensive, either. my only complaint is that there are virtually NO genesis labels available.

It took some tough decisions, but I managed to create a top 5 of the games I found in 2013:

Decided to hit the pawns early this week since they are all closed tommorrow. Got all this for $30. The one I am letting myself keep is Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 first time I have bumped into a copy in a long time. Man I wish they would do an HD re release of the Outbreak games totally missed out on playing MP.

I hit the local Goodwill yesterday and picked up an Xbox and controller for $11. I was taking a bit of a chance on this one since it looked like shit, but it runs fine and even had a game in the disc drive. I cleaned the console up and it looks a lot better now. Kinda wish I took a before picture. *shrugs*

The better part of my haul is the three big box PC games I found. The games I got are Dungeon Keeper: Evil is Good, Abomination, and SWAT Career Pack. While the boxes aren't in that great of condition, their contents are pristine. I think they're pretty good for four bucks each and if I like the games enough, I can look for a nicer box.
